Q. What did the Brexiteer say when he walked into a mosque?

A. Ouch.

Another piss poor attempt to play the race card. Clearly the reference to knights, crusades and mosques was a bit of a struggle for your addled, overworked braincell...

Have you tried SQL Saturdays?

Saturdays are pretty sacred, plus probably not really my scene (too much M$)

On topic warning - I go to 2-3 of these a week, to keep up with the areas of tech I'm interested in, and for free food and drinks with the people I know and get on with well at a few of them (and to heckle badly from the back of the room). Will probably start speaking at them soon. Hacks the wife off a bit, which is a bonus.

They are held periodically in various locations across the country so you need to be prepared to travel but it's well worth it.

I'm sure you can, but I wouldn't try it in a mosque...

Do you think you can just walk into a church and do this these days?

I'm sure you can, but I wouldn't try it in a mosque...

From Wikipedia

Brass rubbing was originally a largely British enthusiasm for reproducing onto paper monumental brasses – commemorative brass plaques found in churches, usually originally on the floor, from between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries. The concept of recording textures of things is more generally called making a rubbing. What distinguishes rubbings from frottage is that rubbings are meant to reproduce the form of something being transferred, whereas frottage is usually only intended to use a general texture.

I've been to a few meetup groups.

I'm very good at getting perm offers....
